Gulam Bodi, former South African cricketer, charged in match-fixing case

Former South African cricketer Gulam Bodi, who had had a short stint with Delhi Daredevils in 2012, has been charged in a match-fixing case by Cricket South Africa (CSA).

The left-handed batsman, who has played for Titans and Highveld Lions, among other teams, has been charged with 'contriving to fix, or otherwise improperly influence aspects' of the 2015 Ram Slam T20 Challenge Series, South Africa's domestic Twenty20 competition.

The 37-year old Bodi, who was born in India, had earlier turned up in international colours for South Africa in three limited overs' games.

Confirming the development, CSA Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said in a statement,"Following our investigations and due process, we have reached a point where we can confirm that Mr Bodi is the intermediary who was charged by CSA in early December 2015 under the CSA Anti-Corruption Code."
